DIC Laptop Design

Posted 11 May 2010 - 04:15 AM

Hi

It's been a while since I was last on DIC, and I was thinking about the thumb drive competition.
Now that little device looks cool, and I was thinking about how great it would be on a laptop (I am looking for a new laptop).

So I did a little research and it turns out that you can make laptop skins to put on your laptops. I tried making a DIC one to see what it looked like, and it wasn't too bad (I couldn't use it since the images aren't mine).

So what I was wondering if DIC already has something like this? If not, why? :-)

Yup.. laptop skins. They've been around... and around... and around.

Did you print said skin off or just play with it in Paint++?

Does DIC have laptop skins - not that I know if.
Why not? - because they are waiting for an enterprising young chap such as yourself to post some to the graphic design sub forum.

hehe, technically not 'that guy' but I see what you mean :-D

I just made the skin on a website, so it wasn't the best. But like I said, I couldn't actually get it to print off since I don't own the right to use those images (they are apart of a corporate identity, etc.)

It would be good if:
a) there was some laptop branding for DIC I was allowed to use the images.

Personally, I would be really interested in having a DIC skin for my laptop. Plus I'm pretty sure that the moment I put the skin on it, the RAM and processor speed would double, my computer would develop and implement an interface for my thought waves, and my machine would become sentient.
